The Passing Era Analysis
I am Kenley Rockvam. I am a 6th grader here at your glorious school. I wanted to advise you about passing periods. I have noticed that not many people have been able to make it to class on time because passing period issues.

All the 6th graders have settle that we do not have enough time during passing period. I have observed a great deal of kids not making it to class on time. They have not made it to class on time because not having time to go to the restroom, lockers getting jammed, and not having enough time to change during P.E. There are various other ways that people can be late but these are just a setting the example. I would like for you to take this into consideration because I think you would much rather see your students in class

    Hallways In School

    Hallways in schools get absolutely crowded during passing time. With a five minute passing time, it would make hallways safer, give people more privacy, and compare better with other schools. One reason why we need a longer passing time is because it would reduce running in the hallways. According to “Wisconsin PBIS Network” you could be running in the hallway and get tripped by another person because you aren't paying attention where you are running or you could accidentally push another student into a locker. In addition, to reducing running rates in the hallway a longer passing time would also help students who need a bathroom break. For example, most teachers don't allow students to go to the bathroom during class, so they have to go during…

    While switching to classes, there will be tons of kids just standing in the courtyard playing and joking around. Other kids will be walking to class and the children that are in the courtyard will pull them aside to keep them from going to class. Peer pressure is hard to turn from, but it is not impossible to walk away from. I make sure I get to class promptly because I care about my grades and how I present myself. It looks good when you are the first person in class with your materials ready and eager to learn. There are people in this world that are going to knock your concentration, but it is your job to remain focus on what is most…

    A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah is a story of a boy soldier and his journey throughout his country's civil war and his forced transition from childhood to adulthood. A long way gone is a perfect title for the book because throughout his struggles he travels farther and farther from his innocence. When a boy like Ishmael is exposed to the horrors and tragedy of war at such a young age it is only human nature to adjust to the environment around them. "I would always tell people that I believe that children have the resilience to outlive their sufferings, if given a chance" (pg 169). Ishmael learned how to survive amongst constant strife and brutality. He breaks his moral codes in order to survive and looses his innocence along the way.…

    I do declare and so do others believe Activity Time is a privilege and also very efficient. Without the social and physical time that we need, not only does this bring upon more stress for teachers, it also has for students of Ligon GT Magnet Middle. The 20 minutes taken out of our day is a time to let loose all energy and be ready to focus as soon as we return to our classes. All students should have the right to make up any work that they might have for a teacher in a timely manner, as well complete it for credit. This makes life easier for students, but for teachers, it helps them to be organized instead of them having to chase you down to get your work in. Now since time is longer during class periods, we are all gaining weight because we sit down all day. We, students at Ligon Middle deserve to have time for extra help needs instead of coming after school, or having to most likely figure it out on your own.…

    Even 30 minute differences help improve students scores from B to B+, or a C to C+. “In the past three years, however, scientific studies have piled up, and they all lead to the same conclusion: a later start time improves learning. And the later the start, the better”(Fischetti). Even studies over the US show that later start times improve grades. “Tiredness and fatigue, however, tend to diminish motivation, particularly for tasks perceived as boring or tedious”(Foster).its the motivation and energy in the kids that era them the good grades. When it is clear that later start times improve grades schools should be determined to help the students.…

    In the 1990 's, American schools started converting from normal Eight period, fifty minute classes to Four period ninety minute block scheduled classes. This schedule was implemented, so that teachers could fit more in to a class session, then what they were use to be able to. Now in days, most American schools use this system as their main scheduling system. But what many people do not know is that, it is doing harm to the students who have to go through their school years under this system. American schools should not have block scheduling because it causes Retention Problems, it causes Problems with Specific Classes, such as Math, Science, AP classes, Foreign Languages, and Music Programs and it also causes Difficulty when a student is absent from school (Lindsay 3). Having normal and constant everyday fifty minute classes will help improve, homework turn ins, test scores and the overall understanding of each subject in a student 's school schedule.…

    Women have fought for equality in a world that is mostly dominated by men. They weren’t allowed in political debates they were always seen as the ‘house wives’ and whenever they did take action it was allow halted by men .The title itself gives to me the idea that men special involved with traditional values and they didn’t want anything to be changed. While the women wanted to move forward and seek changes in their society. The author, Perry, gives us her critique on what she was able to find in women during the progressive era. She also gives four suggestion that historians should take when discussing the progressive era.…

    Seven to eight hours should be enough to learn anything in. If school start at 8A.M and ends at 3P.M that’s seven hours. If you can’t teach your students anything in seven hours and they still have homework that’s a problem. “Seven hours is enough to learn anything in…if you cannot learn what you need in that time, it’s a problem” (mathprepa). I get if your class didn’t finish what they need because of a drill, a meeting, or if they are disruptive, you will make them take it home. But, if you teach everything you need and you still assign homework, that means you need to put more time into teaching your students how to do something the right…

    Well I got some ideas that will stop you from getting cranky, having people yell at you, and being late for class. My first idea is to have designated spots for people to stop and talk if they please, is have wider halls with a fast and slow lanes, third idea is if you are caught stopping in the halls and causing people to slow down you will have a consequence and final is you are able to push them out of the way. Hopefully one day all these slow walking people will learn to walk faster or get out of my…
